Maria P.O.V
I was so excited to see the woman that was finally able to win my son over. I am so happy; I could scream with joy. I genuinely do not care that she is his P.A, and if anyone else does; then they can just close their eyes. I was never a patient woman, and my son was an adorable fool, to think that I would wait till the fundraiser to see this woman. As soon as I got home last night, I had my people find out her address and text it to my driver, that way he can take me to see her in the morning.
When we finally reached the apartment building. My driver stepped out of the car and opened the car door for me. I stepped out and instructed him to wait nearby; He nodded in reply to my instructions. I walked inside the apartment building and towards the elevator. I pressed the up button, and waited for the elevator to arrive. After that, I pulled out my phone to call my son. I can’t wait to
Matthew P.O.VI immediately pulled out my phone and called Will “Have the car pulled to the front of the house in ten minutes. Do not get out of the car. I am going to change, and then we are heading straight to Ali’s apartment.”My mother can be so frustrating to deal with sometimes. I do not know how my father was able to handle her. She was a handful but I guess love does that to a person. I suddenly smiled to myself, when I realize that Ali is the exact same way. She genuinely is a handful sometimes, with her attitude, but I love her nonetheless. I would not want her any other way. She challenges me, and makes me laugh and smile.Damn, I love this woman, I thought to myself with a smile.After hanging up the phone, I quickly called my mother back.Ring!
Maria P.O.VAli looked at me with a thankful expression, as we walked back towards the car to leave; after dropping Dina off at the school “Thank you for helping me take Dina to school Mrs. Day.”I waved my hand dismissingly, then showed a genuine smile on my face “Call me Maria; Also, it was my pleasure. I am very happy to help.”Ali smiled then her face looked curious “I do not mean to sound disrespectful, but may I ask what brought on the surprise visit this morning?”I looked down at my outfit and dusted off the nonexistent lint, then gave a smile that was on the verge of secrecy.I grabbed her hand “I have heard a lot about you from my son. I loved everything he said about you so much, that I wanted to come and meet you myself.”She looked touched “Thank you for saying that, considering the fact that you have never met me before.” She gave a small chuckle “I hope he said all good things about you.”I laughed and nodded my head “Absolutely all good things.” When we got back to th
Dillion’s P.O.VSo, this is Matthew’s mom, I thought to myself with surprise.I watched as Matthew walked towards Ali’s room, leaving his mother and I in the living room. Matthew’s mother smiled at me and walked towards me. She than plopped down on the couch, sitting beside me. She did not look sad at all, from doing what she did. She looked like a sweet woman. Looking at her, I could see the resemblance between her and Matthew.She stuck out her hand to introduce herself “Hello! My name is Maria.”I smiled and shook her hand “Hi Mrs. Day, my name is Dillion.”She waved her hand, “Please call me Maria,” Then noticed my leg wrapped in the cast, and asked “May I ask what happened to your leg?”I nodded my head and then repl
Matthew P.O.VAfter my mother and I exited the building I told her driver to take her to my house and had will take me to mine. When we got there, I gave my mother an earful. Of course, I did not shout at her; I just listed the amount of times, she crossed the line and repeated what I would do if she pulled another stunt like this again. She rolled her eyes multiple times, but again promised that she would not pull another stunt like this again.When she left, I walked to my office and got some work done until it was time to leave the house and head back to Ali’s place. When it was time to get ready, I headed back up to my bathroom and jumped into the shower. After I finished, I walked to my room and opened the doors to my closet. The black tuxedo from my aunt was hung on the rack and ready for me to wear. I smiled to myself when I noticed the small detail, she had included in the tuxedo. The
Ali’s P.O.VWhen we got there, everyone was all seated at their tables. Matthew pulled a chair open for Dillion and I. Dina did not need her chair pulled for her, because as soon as she saw Kyle, she almost ran to the table, to sit next to him. Zack and Kyle were sitting next to their mother. I knew everyone at the table, except the man sitting next to Sam and her sons. Maria, and Madam Lavu were sitting next to Mikey on the opposite side of the table.Sam left the table when it was time to give a speech, followed by a few children that fully recovered from their illnesses, because of the money that was donated for the kids. After the kids were done speaking, a video was projected onto a huge screen. A lot of the kids had incredible stories, and I caught myself shedding a tear here and there. I had to remind myself that I had mascara on, and that If I kept crying, then it would be ruined. Maki
Zack P.O.VI pleaded to Dina as she was shaking uncontrollably on the floor “Please wake up.”I regret asking her to come with Kyle and I to look play around the hotel. I was scared and but tried my best to stay calm. The last thing I need to do, is to freak out, because that wouldn’t make the situation better. What gave me a bit of comfort was remembering an episode about a epileptic patient, on a TV show I used to watch. I wasn’t sure if it was the right thing to do, but I started to do everything the actor on the TV did.The doctor turned her to her side, and quickly remembering that; I turned Dina to her side, that way she doesn’t bite her tongue. I slightly pushed the table that was near Dina, to the side, making sure to clear out the area. I then took off my small blazer and put it underneath her head. After I did that, I pulled out my pho
Dina P.O.VI woke up to complete darkness and was facing the wall, opposite of the window. I remembered what happened hours ago, and was so embarrassed. I am so embarrassed I wanted to dig a hole and hide forever. I was on the verge of crying, and soon after I did start to cry. No one was with me inside the room anyways, so no one would see me.I heard rustling behind me and turned around in alarm. To my surprise, I saw Zack sitting on the chair, with his phone in his hand. I then quickly closed my eyes, and pretended I was sleeping. I had hoped he didn’t hear me and was too busy playing on his phone, to notice my crying. To my horror, I heard his steps get closer, and when I opened my eyes open just a bit; I saw his shoes in front of me. “I know you are awake Dina; my mom was right. You do not have to be ashamed for
Ali’s P.O.VThe fundraiser went really well and was a huge success. It was unfortunate that Dillion and Dina were not able to join but I understand. Everyone else in the even did as well. It was really nice of Sam to do what she did for Dina, even though she has never met her until now.Matthew turned to me, when he noticed I was getting sleepy “Are you ready to leave?”I smiled and nodded my head in reply to his question. Standing up from my chair, I went around the table, kissing everyone on the cheek goodbye. After telling everyone goodbye, Matthew and I walked out the banquet hall and towards the elevator, that will take us upstairs to get Dina and Dillion; from the hotel room that Sam booked for Dina. It was really nice of the staff to do this quickly, instead of making us wait for a room. When the elevator arrived and doors opened; we stepped inside;
